the sleepover

We are having our first sleepover, well as much as it counts at this age. Needless to say AJ thought it was the best thing in the world. My friend's little girl that I watch sometime, needed to stay the night, since her mom had an emergency case late night and had to work again early in the morning. So we moved the pack-n-play and AJ was throwing everything into.... "here Lucy can have my pillow and my blanket, and my zebra and my sheep." I had to secretly sneak everything back out of there so there was actually room for her! AJ may be a little temperamental at times and persnickety about how things are done, but I love the way he always wants to do stuff for people.

I think he is pretty much potty trained, in fact there have been several days where I rarely tell him it's time to go... so I think we are getting there. Now we just have to work on the poop training.... no one ever told me this was 2 separate events!! We have been telling him how proud we are that he is going in the potty and he should be proud of himself for being such a big boy. Well tonight when TK & AJ were getting ready for bed, he said TK I'm going to give you a hug and then he told her he loved her so much and looked at her and patted her back and said I'm so proud of you! It made me laugh and made me want to cry at the same time. (Don't worry he's not perfect all the time... just wait until she pulls up on his chair or something that is doesn't want to share, he'll knock her down fast.) But now he is learning is going to get in trouble for that so he'll push her and then walk to the other side of the room and look at her like I have no idea what just happened. Kid is smart!

This paragraph is about my faith: Lately I have been so stressed!!! and then the fridge broke, obviously doesn't help at all, so I was upset and trying to figure out what in the world God was trying to teach me through these trials lately. Well today we get a check that the electric company overcharged us or something... didn't really read why, just went and cashed that sucker! Anyways is should cover the cost of fixing the fridge (again... 3rd time to fix this thing and it is less than 6 years old!) so amazing ~ once again you just never know how God is going to work things out!
